Replacement Motor for a Vintage Thorens TD 160 Turntable
My son owns a vintage Thorens TD 160 Turntable. The platter is slipping on start-up an on play. My son has isolated the problem to the motor. Any suggestions on where to source a replacement motor?? Thanks
"330MF" = 330 microfarads. It's an unfortunate fact that in some cases some companies abbreviated "microfarad" with "MF". Otherwise, you might think MF means "millifarads", in which case 330MF would equal 330,000 uF, not .33uF. That would be one big mother of a capacitor.
Thanks to all for the comments and helpful suggestions. I passed everything to my son. He told me that he is taking the Thorens to a local electronics repair shop and told the shop to check all the caps that can be seen, especially the jump start cap.
I'll report back as soon as my son hears from the shop.
